New vendor to run operations at Glen Island Harbour Club Westchester County Executive George Latimer and the county Board of Legislators have approved the assignment of the remainder of the lease term of Glen Island Harbour Club to
Homestyle Hospitality, Inc. The Harbour Club had been operated by Continental Hosts, LTD since 1997, but Homestyle Hospitality, Inc. took over the operation of the facility starting Tuesday, Nov. 20.
The Harbour Club had been operated by Continental Hosts, LTD since 1997, but Homestyle Hospitality, Inc. took over the operation of the facility starting Tuesday, Nov. 20.
“Clients of the facility, who have had parties booked will experience a seamless transition – that was our goal,” Latimer said. “Unfortunately, companies come and go, but brides and grooms only have one shot at their special day. Our intention with this deal was to save current clients from emotional stress and economic loss and we have struck that balance.” Under this newly brokered deal, the current on-site manager at Glen Island will remain with Homestyle. This is the on-site employee who has direct contact with all upcoming groups that have contracts with the Harbour Club. Further, the executive chef, kitchen staff and wait staff
are also staying on, making this a seamless transition to clients. Homestyle has been a proven partner with Westchester as the exclusive caterer for highend events at the County Center including Westchester Knicks games, New York Liberty games, the Westchester Hall of Fame Dinner and Westchester Parks Foundation Gala. Homestyle is also the exclusive caterer for events at Dunwoodie Golf Course. Dunwoodie is home to many non-golf events such as weddings, graduations and Bar Mitzvahs. The assignment covers the remainder of the existing lease term through Sept. 30, 2027. (Submitted)
Westchester County Health Commissioner Dr. Sherlita Amler urged physicians to emphasize the harmful effects of vaping when speaking with young people. Speaking to a group of 90 Westchester pediatricians and other health professionals on Nov. 14, the eve of the Great American Smokeout, when Americans are encouraged to quit smoking, Amler said, “We know enough about the dangers of vaping to make stomping out this unhealthy habit among our youth a priority. That’s why it is now illegal to sell liquid nicotine or vaping supplies to anyone under age 21 in Westchester.” Electronic cigarettes contain nicotine, an addictive substance that affects the still-developing brains of adolescents and increases the likelihood of lifelong addiction. Nicotine use can lead to lower impulse control, mood disorders and cardiovascular disease. While the long-term health consequences of vaping are unknown, there is evidence to support it is not harmless. “It is important for our young people to hear straight talk from their doctors about the dangers of electronic cigarettes,” Amler said to the physician participants in a symposium on this topic. “With their sweet and fruity flavors,
slick ads and easily concealed products, the makers of electronic cigarettes and vaping supplies are promoting adolescent addiction.“Pediatricians are one of the most trusted adult figures in their patients’ lives, and your voice matters. Tell your patients that e-cigarettes deliver cancer-causing, harmful substances directly to their lungs.” When they vape, users inhale an aerosol into their lungs. The aerosol can contain harmful substances, including: Fine toxic particles that can interfere with the growth and work of the lungs and increase the risk of heart disease, lung cancer and asthma attacks Flavoring such as diacetyl, a chemical linked to a serious lung disease commonly known as “popcorn lung” Volatile organic compounds that can cause cancer Cancer-causing chemicals Heavy metals such as nickel, tin and lead Many of the harmful chemicals found in cigarette smoke Dr. Richard Stumacher, a pulmonologist with Northern Westchester Hospital, delivered the keynote address, and Dr. Daniel Cohen, a pediatrician with WestMed Medical Group, shared VAPING continued on page 8

Increased DWI enforcement underway in Westchester
As the holiday season approaches, the county police will be increasing its enforcement of Driving While Intoxicated laws along the Bronx River, Cross County, Saw Mill and Hutchinson River parkways.
The Department of Public Safety and other police agencies in Westchester are participating in a joint STOP-DWI enforcement campaign that began this month and will continue through New Year’s Day. The enforcement will include roving patrols and sobriety checkpoints conducted by the county police on parkways and in various local communities. In addition, county police will also team up with municipal police departments and the New York State Police on joint enforcement efforts in targeted locations. “In Westchester, we have seen first-hand the devastating consequences that occur when people drive under the influence of drugs or alcohol,” County Executive George Latimer said. “Innocent lives have been lost and people have suffered permanent, life-changing injuries. Every DWI arrest is a potential tragedy
averted.” As the holiday season approaches, the county police will be increasing its enforcement of Driving While Intoxicated laws along the Bronx River, Cross County, Saw Mill and Hutchinson River parkways. Stepped-up enforcement is also planned in Cortlandt, Mount Kisco and other local communities. Anyone planning to consume alcohol should always have a designated driver, take a taxi or make other arrangements to avoid getting behind the wheel, according to Department of Public Safety Commissioner Thomas Gleason. Earlier this month, Gov. Andrew Cuomo declared November as STOP-DWI month across the state. County police in recent weeks have conducted joint enforcement with the Port Chester Police Department, Mount Vernon Police Department and New
York State Police, resulting in multiple arrests.The county Office of Drug Abuse Prevention and STOP-DWI assists in coordinating joint law enforcement initiatives such as the current enforcement campaign. Since the STOP-DWI program was established across the state in 1981, fatalities from alcohol-related crashes on New York’s roadways have decreased 74 percent. The Office of Drug Abuse Prevention and STOP-DWI also conducts numerous programs for schools and community groups to educate the public about the dangers of impaired driving, the increased certainty of arrest and the serious penalties faced by drivers convicted of DWI. It also holds many educational programs at high schools around the county to educate new drivers about the dangers and consequences of impaired driving. (Submitted)

What’s going on... Larchmont Public Library
Frank Discussions with Frank Connelly Nov. 7: Title to be selected by group
Literary Bites: A Cookbook Exploration
For more information on hours and programs, visit larchmontlibrary.org.
Fall discussion roundup One of the best things that a public library can offer to its community is a wide variety of opportunities for those in the community to get together and talk about the books that they’ve read. Book discussion groups run the gamut and there is literally a discussion group for every taste in reading. Discussion groups are great places for friends old and new to gather. Library book discussion groups expand on the concept by meeting in a place known for housing literature and are led by a librarian who is trained in exploring all things literary. This fall, the Larchmont Public Library is offering a bumper crop of book discussion groups and extends an invitation to you, the community, to come get involved. Here’s an overview of the discussion groups available:
Monday, Oct. 15 from 1 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. Food brings the global family together. Literary Bites invites the community to join in an exploration of food in every form, in every cuisine, in an environment that encourages sharing recipes, prepared dishes and culinary experiences. Members can choose to share a dish they’ve prepared using a recipe from a cookbook the group is focusing on. This inaugural meeting will focus on “My Kitchen Year” by Ruth Reichel, former editor of Gourmet Magazine.
Stranger Than Fiction with Liam Hegarty Thursday, Nov. 1 at 7 p.m. The Stranger Than Fiction group led by librarian Liam Hegarty, focuses on Non-Fiction, from biography to history and current events. For the November meeting, the group will read and discuss “The Soul of An Octopus: A Joyful Exploration Into the Wonder of Consciousness” by Sy Montgomery.
Ileen Gottesfeld Discussion: The Consequence of Decision Oct. 31: “Terrorist” by John Updike If actually reading the books isn’t your thing, most all of the books selected are available in digital formats so you can listen to them in the car or on your mobile device. All of the discussion groups offered at the library are free and no registration is required. Books are
made available three weeks prior to each discussion. Because discussion groups meet at regular intervals, it is advised to visit the library’s website for specific dates and times. Visit the library’s website at larchmontlibrary.org/adultprograms.
Sound Shore Market of Larchmont Did you know that there is a new mid-week community farmer’s market in Larchmont? It takes place in beautiful Kane Park located on Post Road (between Kane and Beach avenues) every Wednesday. The market is intended to be a destination for Larchmont and Sound Shore families to shop, dine and have fun while enhancing Larchmont’s image as an attractive, vibrant, shopping, family friendly village. Prepared foods, such as BBQ pork sandwiches, fresh salads and Greek specialties, and provision foods, such as produce, fresh fish and breads, will be offered with rotating vendors. In addition, each week there is live music and activities from
Larchmont businesses to create an engaging and enjoyable atmosphere. Founder and Larchmont resident Drew George enlisted the help of The Valley Area Network, a non-profit organization that also runs Piermont’s popular “SOUK” market to operate the Sound Shore Market. The market takes place every Wednesday from 2 p.m. to 7 p.m. through Oct 31. (Note that the market will end at 6 p.m. beginning in September). Parking is easy and ample... Just pull right up to the park either on Post Road or Kane Avenue.
Deadline for our What’s Going On section is every Thursday at noon. Though space is not guaranteed, we will do our best to accommodate your listing. Please send all items to news@hometwn.com.

Rye Neck students share a piece of home with troops In honor of Veteran’s Day, all students at F.E. Bellows Elementary School participated in a service project to thank our troops overseas for their service and sacrifice to our country. The students crafted handmade cards and wrote letters as a way to express their appreciation and gratitude. “It is the perfect way to kick off the upcoming holiday season by being kind,” Principal Michael
Scarantino said. In addition to making cards, the students filled and attached small bags of soil to the cards to make the soldiers feel close to home. Susan Combs, a fifthgrade teacher and team leader who spearheaded the project, said some soldiers carry them in their pockets and others keep them in their bunks. The letters and bags of soil
were delivered to United for the Troops, a nonprofit organization that works to share acts of kindness and generosity to our armed forces, that will then distribute them to the brave men and women overseas. “It is a wonderful organization that helps so many soldiers who cannot be home during the holidays,” Combs said.

Philips Harbor opens in Mamaroneck
A new and exciting style of townhouse living on the Mamaroneck waterfront debuted with the grand opening of Philips Harbor, an exclusive collection of contemporary designed townhomes overlooking Mamaroneck Harbor. “Philips Harbor is ideal for today’s sophisticated buyers who are looking for a luxuriously appointed townhome that has spectacular water views, top-of-theline finishes and walkable to one of Westchester’s finest downtowns,” said developer Michael Rosen. Philips Harbor features seven townhouse residences each with three bedrooms and three-anda-half bathrooms. The exteriors have an innovative contemporary design not typically seen in the Westchester market. The modern and stylish interiors have open, flow-through floor plans, 10.5 foot-high living room ceilings and floor-to-ceiling windows that provide stunning views of Mamaroneck Harbor and Harbor Island Park. Each of the four-level residences has its own elevator and oversized private terraces overlooking the harbor. The open concept gourmet kitchens feature custom Italian wood grain-style cabinetry, white and Calacatta Quartz countertops, backsplash and island, and chef inspired Viking and Subzero appliances along with complementary wine coolers. The great room is bathed in sunlight from the expansive floor-to-ceiling sliders and windows. White oak floating stairs behind a wall of glass lead to the top floor master suite which features spacious walk-in closets and silver travertine tiled spa bathrooms complete with large steam shower, radiant heating, sculptural free-standing soaking tubs and private commodes. Each master bedroom suite also includes a gas-powered fireplace. Heating and cooling systems are controlled via WiFi enabled Nest thermostats and LED lighting is
throughout the residences. Each residence includes a two-car garage along with additional exterior parking. The residences, which range from 2,972 to 3,256 square feet, are priced from $1.79 million. Located on Delancey Avenue just off Boston Post Road, Philips Harbor is an easy walk to downtown Mamaroneck with its fine restaurants, shops, Metro-North station and Harbor Island Park, a 44-acre recreational park with an exceptional small boat marina. Philips Harbor is located on the site of the former McGuire’s Restaurant which closed in the early 2000s. When Rosen acquired the vacant property the prior owner planned to build 15 units. He chose to build only seven townhomes in order to maximize the harbor views. “To me it’s all about the views. I felt this site demanded an approach that takes full advantage of the water views,” he said. Rosen noted that today’s home buyers are moving toward the more contemporary design featured at Philips Harbor. “No one in the Westchester market is building townhomes with the unique and exciting design we created at Philips Harbor,” he added. The residences at Philips Harbor are designed by Wade Allyn Hallock, a Miami-based designer who has been designing homes for some of today’s top celebrities in both the movie and music industry. His work has been shown in Elle Decor, Miami Luxury, Florida Design and Cultured. Rosen is a Westchester native and third-generation builder, developer and manager of real estate who has spearheaded dozens of development projects over the past 34 years both in Westchester County and Florida. Most recently in Westchester, Rosen is jointly developing a 96-unit luxury apartment complex within the village of Mamaroneck. For more information about Philips Harbor, visit philipsharbor.com.

The Holocaust & Human Rights Education Center is currently conducting its fourth annual Human Rights Institute for Middle School Student Leaders. The three sessions, Nov. 8, 13 and 15 is taking place at New York Medical College in Hawthorne. Seventh grade students from middle schools in Westchester and Fairfield counties participate in a day-long event. The goal of the institute is to lay
the foundation for encouraging students to be upstanders rather than bystanders. The two main themes will be “Respecting the Individual” and “How to Be an Upstander.” The program will include a keynote presentation by Sheila Arnold, lead performer of History’s Alive!; breakout sessions on our two themes; and an afternoon session with school groups. There will also be par-
ticipation from high school students who facilitated workshops at our Human Rights Institute for High School Student Leaders on March 15.

Statewide, 27.4 percent of high school students surveyed had vaped last year, according to the New York State Department of Health. Student Assistance Services found that during the 2017-2018 school year, more than 30 percent of Westchester high school seniors
reported they had vaped in the past month.

Reilly League of Artists return to Larchmont The Larchmont Public Library’s Oresman Gallery presents “December Art,” an exhibit of paintings by the artists of The Reilly League. The exhibit will open on Tuesday, Dec. 4, and will remain on display through Friday, Dec. 28. The exhibit is free and open to everyone during normal library hours. “December Art” brings together an unusual consortium of artists from all over Westchester County with distinct personal visions in this year’s exhibit. Many of the exhibited works have never been on public view. The Reilly League draws on the uniqueness of the league’s individual member artists. At the league’s studio in White Plains, artists work together mornings, afternoons and evenings to draw or paint from a live model or still life. Consequently, the subject of the paintings is drawn or painted from a multitude of artist perspectives, in a diversity of media, with a variety of objectives. The singular vision of the artist is always present. In “December Art,” the artists have sometimes included groupings of paintings with
the same subject, indicating the pieces were done at the same time at the league’s White Plains studio. When the artists do this, variations in the artist’s vision are easy to see. In other instances, only one painting of a subject is shown and identifying marks of an artist are more subtle. When artists work together at The Reilly League, they become part of a larger collaboration. Identifying and working together as artists makes each artist’s work stronger, more focused and enjoyable for the artists themselves as well as for viewers of the paintings. The Reilly League of Artists is a not-for-profit arts organization created by Frank Reilly, a teacher from the Arts Student League in New York City. Ever since the league was founded in the mid-1970s, the studio has been a vibrant center for those interested in working from life, whether a live model or still life. The Reilly League offers several sessions a week, including during the day, evenings and weekends. Using a live model some sessions focus on long poses while others focus
on quick gestures. Artists are free to work in the medium and style of their choice. Easels,
stools and chairs are provided by the Reilly League. Instruction from a classically trained painter is available on Saturday mornings. All are welcome at the
league. There are no entrance requirements. So whether you are a professional artist who wants to refine your skills, a Sunday painter or an art major who went AWOL after college,
you will find the league a pleasant and professional setting. For more information about The Reilly League of Artists, visit reillyleague.com or call 791-2160. (Submitted)

‘The Nutcracker’ comes to life at Picture House
The Picture House is presenting the Nutcracker Magical Matinee to give young audiences an authentic, formal theater experience, close to home and at affordable ticket prices. This film version of “The Nutcracker” is the same production performed by New York City Ballet each December at Lincoln Center.
Join the Picture House Regional Film Center on Sunday, Dec. 9 at 3 p.m. for the Nutcracker Magical Matinee, an annual holiday tradition for families and kids of all ages. The cinematic version of New York City Ballet’s classic production brings George Balanchine’s choreography to the big screen. “The Nutcracker” will be presented in the Main Hall, at a special film event trimmed with beautifully costumed ballerinas from Ballet Arts greeting attendees upon arrival, a live dance performance and photo opportunities. A holiday favorite, “The Nutcracker” is the beloved tale of a young girl whose dreams transport her to a fantasy land of Mice Kings and fairytale sweets that come to life. The film features a
legendary all-star cast from New York City Ballet, including Darci Kistler and Damian Woetzel as the Sugarplum Fairy and her Cavalier, with a cameo appearance by a young McCauley Culkin as the Nutcracker Prince. Kevin Kline narrates the story. The matinee event will open with a live performance by youth members of Ballet Arts’ dance program featuring excerpts from The Nutcracker Act II. Dancers in costumes will greet movie-goers and will be available for photo opportunities during intermission. The Picture House is once again presenting this enchanting matinee event to give young audiences an authentic (yet more forgiving), formal theater experience, close to home and at affordable ticket prices. This film ver-
sion of “The Nutcracker” is the same production performed by New York City Ballet each December at Lincoln Center. “The annual Nutcracker Magical Matinee has become a Picture House holiday tradition that we look forward to all year long,” said Clayton Bushong, director of programming at The Picture House. “Our collaboration with Ballet Arts allows us to bring a local, live performance of this beloved classic to audiences who may not be ready or able to make it to Lincoln Center.” Tickets for The Nutcracker Magical Matinee are priced at $20 for general admission, $16 for members, $10 children and are available at thepicturehouse. org or at the box office, 175 Wolfs Lane in Pelham.

Running up the score LIVE MIKE Mike Smith
Although I may be something of a sports purist, I hardly consider myself the type of fan who rails against innovations and changes to the games that I love. I’ve fully embraced the shift in baseball, I’m glad that there is far less fighting in hockey these days, and, I have to admit, the wideopen NBA is more fun to watch now than it was in the 1990s, when the Heat and Knicks would cheap shot each other for four quarters en route to a 72-65 finish. But sometimes, you can have too much of a good thing. On Nov. 19, the Kansas City Chiefs and Los Angeles Rams squared off in a hotly anticipated Monday Night Football matchup that, by any account, more than
lived up to the hype. Two topflight offenses took turns marching down the field all night long until Jared Goff and the Rams were able to land the final punch to come away with a 54-51 win. The game was the highest scoring in Monday Night Football history, unequivocally becoming an instant classic that had football fans buzzing the following morning for good reason. But as thrilling as this game was, I worry that it is also a preview of what the NFL is hoping to become. Now, I’ve got nothing against an offensive shootout. Monday’s matchup was everything it promised to be, a battle between a pair of young quarterbacks leading the top two offensive teams in the league. But what made the game special is that, at least for now, these types of scoring deluges are few and far between. It just doesn’t seem like that
will be the case forever. Over the last decade or so, NFL officials have been tinkering with rules in order to promote more points. Protecting quarterbacks, limiting contact with receivers, it seems like nearly everything the league has put in place has been to facilitate higher scoring games. And I get it, offensive stars—especially quarterbacks—are the lifeblood of the league, especially for younger fans. But I worry that one day, stout defenses such as Pittsburgh’s Steel Curtain or the Ravens’ dominant group from the early 2000s, will be no more than a relic of history, like leather helmets and the wishbone offense. So I hope you enjoyed Monday night’s fireworks. I’m just worried that in another five years, games like that are just going to be par for the course.

Tigers eye next step By MIKE SMITH Sports Editor After enjoying a historic season last winter, the Mamaroneck Tigers are coming into the upcoming campaign hoping to take the basketball program to a whole new level. And with a number of returning players from last season’s squad, the Tigers are poised to once again make waves in the Class AA landscape. Last year, the Tigers finished with an 18-5 record and reached the semifinal round of the sectional tournament, both high-water marks for the program since the early 1970s. With seven players returning, head coach Ty Carver hopes that last year’s success will carry over. “I definitely feel like our returning guys are focused and understand what they need to do,” Carver told the Review. “They feel like they have some unfinished business coming into the
season, and we not only want to get back to where we were, we want to go one step further.” Chief among Carver’s returning players is center Will Sarkozi, who enjoyed a breakout season last year. The senior, long a defensive stalwart, emerged as a true scoring threat, and Carver feels like his presence down low should help to open up chances for the team’s athletic perimeter players such as Ethan Renner, Shane Smith and Tommy Martin. “We want to attack from inside-out,” Carver said. “We’re going to have some younger guys step up, we want to take care of the ball and play unselfish basketball.” Mamaroneck’s commitment to unselfish play doesn’t stop on the offensive end, however, as Carver’s teams have long been known for their stifling team defense, something that the head coach hopes will continue this year. “I think these guys understand
that everything starts and ends defensively,” he said. “Our goal is to limit opponents to one shot, excel in the open court, and at the end of the day do those things that we preach.” Mamaroneck will officially kick off the season on Nov. 30, when they match up with Hendrick Hudson in the first round of the Sleepy Hollow basketball tournament. Although the Tigers won’t play their first league game until Dec. 9 at White Plains, Carver hopes to see encouraging signs as his team begins its run toward another postseason appearance. “We just want to continue to work on our game; we’ve had some good scrimmages and we want to continue to improve,” Carver said. “This is a good group of guys, and if they work hard every day, they’re going to see the fruits of that hard work.” CONTACT: sports@hometwn.com
